Tomorrow evening, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain will cross swords during the fifth day of the Champions League. A shock which will be crucial for the Ile-de-France residents. However, the latter had started their European campaign well with a victory against Girona in the first act, on September 18 at the Parc des Princes. But the next three acts were not very good from an accounting point of view for PSG, who followed with a defeat against Arsenal, a draw against PSV Eindhoven and finally a 2-1 defeat at home against Atlético de Madrid two weeks ago. Twenty-fifth in the standings, the French champion club will have to raise its head during the following four days against Bayern Munich, Salzburg, Manchester City and Stuttgart. This was the message broadcast this Monday at a press conference by Vitinha and Luis Enrique. The Asturian is aware that his team is playing big.

“I think we played 12 Ligue 1 matches and 4 in the Champions League. So that’s 16 matches. I believe that my team, except against Arsenal, performed very well. We could see it with the statistics, in attack and defense. Tomorrow, we will follow this same course of action. We are going to have to go further than what we are used to. It will be the same for Bayern Munich. When we don’t have the ball, we will have to run more. We will have to raise the level, especially when we play against an opponent of this level (…) We have already played 4 Champions League matches, including 3 at home. Is the result fair or not? I’ve said it before, for me it’s unfair. But he is what he is. So now we have to have good results to qualify. It is not yet clear how many points it will take to achieve this. We made it difficult for ourselves. Football only knows one thing: goals scored and for that, we still have room for improvement.” We will have to score tomorrow evening in Munich to stay alive in C1.
